Problems, problems, problems

To me, this article appears to have a number of problems. First, can we verify this item?:

"Jones was originally drafted by the Arizona Cardinals in the first round (seventh overall) of the 2000 NFL Draft after his junior season out of the University of Virginia, from which he graduated after just three years, never missing a practice or a class."

The second paragraph as a whole reads more like something that belongs in a sports magazine or newspaper article than in an encyclopedia. In fact, I first suspected a copyvio issue with it because there was a copyvio issue in the Julius Jones article. Google, however, didn't come up with any hits for pieces of that paragraph's text.

Would anyone be interested in taking on a cleanup of this article? --Takeel 14:26, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
